The record
Cut in Sweden with Wilbur Little and Elvin Jones, this session finds Flanagan's lines crisp and lyrical years before his long stint accompanying Ella Fitzgerald -- Jones works brushes here, not sticks.

Pressings
We hold no original-era US LP for this title. The earliest we list is a 1961 Japanese mono on Top Rank International, MJ-7010. Everything after it is reissue -- Japanese copies from 1978, a 1996 US Prestige repress -- and the serious modern work sits at the far end: Analogue Productions' 200g mono in 2012, APRJ 7134 again in 2022 and 2023, and the Electric Recording Co.'s limited ERC021 in 2016.
